Celebrate Hope is the signature gala for USA Mitchell Cancer Institute. Held the Thursday before Thanksgiving each year, the event features dishes by local chefs paired with wine and craft beer, as well as live entertainment. Since its inception, Celebrate Hope has generated more than $2.5 million for cancer research. A special thank-you to all of the sponsors, attendees, chefs and vendors who play an integral role in the success of Celebrate Hope! View photos from the 2016 Celebrate Hope gala.
